About this work
A hand-colored print shows a steam locomotive pulling a line of passenger cars along a railway through tall grass, with a headlamp beam cutting forward. Behind the train, a vast prairie fire glows orange and red beneath dark smoke, and small figures of fleeing animals appear along the horizon. The work is published by Currier & Ives and dated 1872.
